Freight Train Blues Lyrics (lyrics of songs in english)

I was born in Dixie in a boomer shackJust a little shanty by the railroad trackThe humming of the drivers was my lullabyAnd a freight train whistle taught me how to cry

I got the freight train blues lawdy lawdy lawdyGot them in the bottom of my ramblin' shoesAnd when the whistle blows I gotta goOh lawdy I guess I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues[ guitar - fiddle - steel ]Now my pappy was a fireman and my mammy dearWas the only daughter of an engineerMy sweetie is a brakeman and it ain't no jokeIt's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke
